As I assumed this weekend did not go as well as I would have liked. I know I am supposed to be in control of myself so I know I have no one to blame but me. I also know "Rome wasn't built in a day". It takes a lot of day to day work for something to become a habit. As I type this all out it certainly sounds like I am great at making excuses.
I am not obese, I am just not at a healthy weight for my height. If I continue with my habits I know I will become obese. But, that is not why I am on this journey. I certainly am not thrilled with the way I look in photos. I know the health risks if I continue eating the way I do. I am on this journey though because I use food as a drug. Its a hard habit to break. So, perhaps with parties and barbecues and the mixture of some of my key stressors or triggers was too much to tackle my first week out. I guess we will see what the scale says tomorrow.
I will say this while I didn't stick to my plan yesterday and today. I was at least conscious of the choices I was making. I did nibble away at the chex mix. I did eat the icing off my son's slice of cake after i ate my own slice. I was aware that at those moments I wasn't hungry. Just looking to taste something. To shut out the environment & people in the environment and just munch away. So, in a way that is progress.
I will begin anew in the morning tap & track and exercise.
